I have a need to remotely start and administer processes which are GUI based.

As I understand the NX documentation, I can either shut down my current nxclient and automatically close the nx session or I can leave my connection and then return later to the nx session where I left off.

What I want to do is leave my connection and allow the remote nx session processes to continue running.

For example:

Let's say I start an nx session {with kde} and I start ktorrent running. In this case, I'd like to set up a number of torrents to run, leave my connection with the remote host, then come back to it later to check on the status of the torrents.

As I noted above, the official documentation implies strongly that I can't do this.

Have I missed something? Is there a way to do this?

In the alternative for the above example, I could use something like 'screen' and start up an ncurses based bittorrent client. But that's not the direction I want to go.

Any advice?_________________People whom think M$ is mediocre, don't know the half of it.
